Many single-stage PFC(power-facto.-correction) ACHC converters suffer from the high link voltage at high input voltage and light load condition. In this paper, to suppress the link voltage, a novel high power factor high efficiency PFC AC/DC converter is proposed using the single controller which generates two gate signals so that one of them is used far gate signal of the flyback DC/DC converter switch and the other is applied to the Boost PFC stage. A 130w prototype for LCD monitor adapter with universal input $(90-265V_{rms})$ and 19.5V 6.7A output is implemented to verify the operational principles and performances. The experimental results show that the maximum link voltage stress is about 450V at 270Vac input voltage. Moreover, efficiency and power factor are over $84\%$ and 0.95, respectively, under the full load condition.

The push pull forward converter is a very suitable circuit for low output voltage, high output current applications with a wide input voltage range. All the magnetic components (output inductor, transformer, input filter) can be integrated into a single core. The integrated magnetics can reduce the number of the magnetic components. Developed the push pull forward converter rating are of 36 $\~$72V input and 3.3V/30A output. In this converter, the efficiency was measured by $76.4\%$ at full load and 82.95$\%$ at full load. The maximum efficiency is up to 83.$\%$ at 200kHz switching frequency, l1A output.

Fuel cell is remarkable for one of the clean energy recently. But in the fuel cell case, it has characteristics with low voltage and high current. Therefore, for using domestic power, it should be changed to the power source with commercial voltage and frequency. In this paper fuel cell simulator having electrical characteristics is designed and constructed instead of fuel cell stack. Voltage generated from fuel cell is from 39V to 72V dc and should be boosted to 400v do for home appliances. A stand alone system including the inverter and DC/DC converter for the fuel cell is then proposed. Experimental result is used to support the analysis.

In this paper, a multiplying digital-to-analog converter (MDAC) circuit for low-power high-resolution CMOS algorithmic A/D converters (ADC's) is proposed. The proposed MDAC is designed to operte properly at a supply at a supply voltge between 3 V and 5 V and employs an analog0domain power reduction technique based on a bias switching circuit so that the total power consumption can be optimized. As metal-to-metal capacitors are implemented as frequency compensation capacitors, opamps' performance can be varied by imperfect process control. The MDAC minimizes the effects by the circuit performance variations with on-chip tuning circuits. The proposed low-power MDAC is implementd as a sub-block of a 10-bit 200kHz algorithmic ADC using a 0.6 um single-poly double-metal n-well CMOS technology. With the power-reduction technique enabled, the power consumption of the experimental ADC is reduced from 11mW to 7mW at a 3.3V supply voltage and the power reduction ratio of 36% is achieved.

An on chip voltage down converter (VDC) using the self temperature-compensation techniques is proposed. At a different gate bias voltage, PMOSFET shows different source to drain current characteristic according to the temperature variation. The proposed VDC can reduce its temperature dependency by the source to drain current ratio of two PMOSFET with different gate bias respectively. Proposed circuit is fabricated in Dongbu-anam $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process and experimental results show its temperature dependency of $-0.49mV/^{\circ}C$ and external supply dependency of 6mV/V. Total current consumption is only $1.1{\mu}A@2.5V$.

This paper presents a high speed synchronous single inductor dual output boost converter using Type-III compensation for power management in smart devices. Maintaining multiple outputs from a single inductor is becoming very important because of inductor the sizes. The uses of high switching frequency, inductor and capacitor sizes are reduced. Owing to synchronous rectification this kind of converter is suitable for SoC. The phase is controlled in time sharing manner for each output. The controller used here is Type-III, which ensures quick settling time and high stability. The outputs are stable within $58{\mu}s$. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme achieves a better overall performance. The input voltage is 1.8V, switching frequency is 5MHz, and the inductor used is 600nH. The output voltages and powers are 2.6V& 3.3V and 147mW &, 230mW respectively.
